BCG Attorney Search Reviews

I had a wonderful experience overall. I thought that the firm was extremely responsive, aggressive, and very well organized. I thought the recruiter I worked with, Carleen Trapp, was particularly helpful and she did a great job. She identified a lot of opportunities for me and was of great assistance in terms of helping me make a decision. Working with BCG Attorney Search got me a new job, which is the best part. I was in the process of making a geographic move anyway. Having the firm provide initial targets and then narrow that down to places that fit well with my practice area and profile the type of firm that I was looking to lateral to also made my job search easier. It made what could have been very long and painful processes quite efficient and quite enjoyable. The first three words that come to mind when I think about BCG are responsive, efficient, and organized. I would rank BCG Attorney Search as far and away the best I have ever worked with, no question. I would highly recommend BCG Attorney Search to a peer of mine and let them know that your firm would be a wonderful resource if they were even considering a move. I would do this because your firm would be able to quickly and efficiently identify opportunities, and give them a really good market perspective as to what those options and opportunities would be.

BCG was very responsive and provided me the opportunities that I think were more specific to what I was actually looking for, than other recruiters and you guys had way more contacts and opportunities too. By finding the opportunities that I wouldn't have thought to contact and taking care of the initial reach out and cover letter and setting up the first interview was a huge help and also in negotiating my offer as well. I would say that BCG is the best, I am kindof biased because you helped me get the job.

My favorite thing about working with BCG was locating positions that I wasn't aware of. The first three words that come to mind when I think of BCG are responsive, helpful, and good to work with. I would rank BCG right at the top compared to other recruiting companies. I was very pleased to work with BCG Attorney Search, and would recommend them. I found a really good position.

My recruiter helped me achieve my life-long goal of working in a big law firm. When every recruiter I spoke to said ""no- you do not have the pedigree"" or ""your book of business is not big enough,"" she saw in me what my current employer did- a tenacious attorney with the motivation to succeed if given the chance.Right from the onset, she was the only one who invested time in talking to me, getting to know me and my work, and really believed in my expertise. She focused on my work, clients, and personality, rather than my law school. And soon, following my association with my recruiter I had numerous interviews with large firms. These were the same large firms that other recruiters said my credentials were not suitable for application. I am now working at a top AM Law 100 firm running my own practice group!My recruiter was very patient with me since I was unfamiliar with the ""big firm"" process. She talked to me almost daily about my interviews and expectations. Through her persistence and relationships, she even got me an interview at a firm which initially passed and ultimately turned into a strong contender. What else can I say? She made what everyone else said was impossible - possible. She is an invaluable resource for people like me, who are hard working but don't have the pedigree to be recognized on our merit alone. Thank you.

I felt that the individuals that I worked with were very responsive and worked hard to figure out and find a job that was right for me. It allowed me to continue working, instead of having to focus and put in a lot more effort than I would've liked to find a job. The first three words that come to mind are dedicated, persistent, and successful. I would say that you are probably the best recruiter, but I have not worked with anyone else. You guys are great and I would recommend you.

What were some of your favorite things about working with BCG and Carolina?

Extremely responsive. She was proactive in the sense of keeping up with me even if there wasn't anything new necessarily happening. She would reach out just to check in and let me know what she was doing. If I was having any issues she would talk me through it and send me BCG literature that was applicable to what I was going through.

Where would we rank amongst other recruiting company's?

At the top - I reached out to the recruiting firm I got my first job through and they dropped the ball and basically told me there was nothing out there with the pandemic going on. Carolina was consistently sending me new openings and advocating on my behalf.

The communication was reasonably good and timely. I thought the woman I worked with was very professional and she was good at communicating in terms of following up in a reasonable amount of time. It worked and I'm here, so I am very happy as a result.

They were very good about scheduling the calls, getting the process rolling. I started working with someone who was in California and he transferred me to an associate in New York. The entire process was basically seamless. Another recruiter at BCG picked up where Brian left off. I really appreciated the responsiveness and being able to get the process rolling quickly. It made it a whole lot easier because BCG had their eye and ear to the ground and were able to see what openings were there and get me in the door, which I wasn't able to do on my own. I was also abroad and trying to transfer home so I really didn't have an ear to the ground. I needed someone to advocate on my behalf in the states while I was abroad. I only worked with one other recruiter and he didn't place me. And then I started working with BCG and you did. I think it's pretty clear that you're better than him. I would recommend you.
